SKYPE PREVENTS ME FROM CONTACTING THEM ABOUT THEIR...
Skype,
I upgraded to the topnnotch of your avaiable programs but instead you give me 15$ worth of useless skype credit and now I CANT CONTACTYOU IN ANYWAY!!!! dout you will read this but if you do maybe you should get back to me before I call my Bank and cancel payment.
I plan on spamming every single post until i get my issue resloved....
Yes, I've tried that, but it basically tells me to uninstall QuickTime and iTunes, which is my biggest problem right now; I can't seem to uninstall them. I was finally able to update InstallShield (I think) and uninstall QuickTime and iTunes through the Control Panel, but I never did find any QT files under system32. When I tried to reinstall iTunes, I got the error message saying that the InstallScript engine on the machine is older than the version required to run this setup. But I'm pretty sure I did update InstallShield. There are about 20 different folders and files on my computer under InstallShield, and I don't understand how to tell which one is being used, and which I can delete. I followed the instructions from InstallShield, but that doesn't help me figure out which version I have. I'm also concerned that when I look on the Control Panel, there is nothing remaining for iTunes or QuickTime, but if I do a search, there are tons of files for both of them. But I'm afraid to start deleting things if I run the risk of deleting my music. So I don't know what my primary issue is at this point - uninstalling files, or updating InstallShield.

I recently brought an ipad 2, i wondering is there anyway to mark files hidden to keep others from viewing them??
well... there are some apps where you can store your passwords and stuff, but they will not prevent people from opening you photos/emails and get nosy while you are not watching.
I know what you mean.
Maybe you want to give some feedback to Apple: http://www.apple.com/feedback/ipad.html -
Why doesn't Verizon do something about their tech support?????
Verizon Tech Support is definitely outsourced to call centers outside the country. They are quick to offer an apology to your problem, but they make it very apparent that it is your problem. If you do not do exactly as they instruct you to do, they will happily close out your ticket, and your problem still remains unsolved. I have been through the ringer with them on more than one occassion about the same exact issues. Each time that I call, I have to go through the same song and dance, eventhough it is the exact same issue that I have contacted them about before, and the issue is clearly on their end and not on my system. On one occassion, I sat and argued with a gentlemen in Mexico that my issue wasn't fixed. They said it was fixed. I said it wasn't, and I would loose my DSL connection while I was on the phone with him. Another instance, they disconnected my DSL because I have dry loop service and my home line did not have a dial tone, so the techs came out and disconnected everything. Tech support was a joke then as well. I was on the phone for several hours trying to convince them that it was an issue on thier end and not mine.They claimed that I had to be home for the repairman to come out, but I did not have to be home for them to come out and disconnect it in the first place. Because I would not go through all their trouble shooting steps, they would close my ticket out and my problem would remain my problem until I would call them again. It took an act of God for them to come out and get things reconnected again. I actually feel physically ill now when I have an issue with my DSL because I know what it will entail just to get the trouble ticket set up. I have had the operators claim that we have a bad connection (after being on the phone with them for over an hour). They claim that they will need to call you back, but then they never do. When I call back and check on the status, guess what, my trouble ticket had been closed out. This past instance, I called and complained about a slow connection. The same exact issue that I contacted them about over a month ago. After going through the song and dance again, they claimed that someone would call me back in 24 hours, and no one has. I have complained to the FCC and the State Corporation Commission on more than one occassion, but it seems as if it just business as usual for Verizon. {please keep it relevant} I think that is the only way that they will get the message that what they are doing just isn't going to cut it anymore, and they need to make some changes. I have cut my home phone line with them because of their lack of service. If I had an alternative to DSL available to me in my neighborhood, I would gladly take it so I could finally severe all ties to that company. There has to be something better than business as usual.
{please keep it relevant} I contacted tech. support on Sunday about my slow internet connection. I was pulling 52 kbits/s on a 3M service. This is the second time that I have had this issue. The last time I contacted tech support about this issue was about a month ago. I went through the same song and dance without any resolution. Somehow the next day, my connection was corrected and I was getting my 3M service again.
This lasted for a month. I called Sunday, 10/11/09 about a slow connection again, Same issue, only able to get 52 kbits/s. Yet, I had to set through the same old song and dance with Verizon tech support. We did things like clear my internet explorer cache and cookies and run a speed test, when I already told the foreign gentlemen on the other end of the line what my connection speed was. How is that going to help improve my connection speed????? At the end of it all, I was told that I would be contacted by a senior tech support specialist from Verizon within 24 hours. Sure as the sun shines, it is now Tuesday, 10/13/09 and I have yet to hear anything from the senior Verizon tech. support.. The kicker is that I am not at all surprised by this. This is now the norm for Verizon. Yet, I still pay my bill. I am still under my contract.
I am going to make a prediction. Next month about this exact same time, I will be contacting Verizon with the exact same complaint, a slow interner connection, and I will have to go through the same old song and dance and have to do things like re-boot my modem and clear my internet explorer cache and cookies and run a speed test, eventhough I have told the foriegn guy from tech support that I have already done all this. Then, they will promise that someone from the senior tech support from Verizon will give me a call back within 24 hours and I will not hear from anyone.

I have a hard time understanding why I can't contact support about THEIR problem. I plugged my iPhone into my pc. iTunes came up. It said there was an update available for the phone. I accepted that. Clicked on the "download only" because I didn't have the time to install it at that point. It downloaded but didn't stop. It continued to the 'backing up your iPhone' segment then froze. I waited at least an hour with no change. Finally I unplugged my phone..iTunes wasn't responding.I rebooted my pc then tried the same thing again. Same outcome even though I let it "Back Up" for 7-8 hrs while I slept. Same Story............... iTunes 10.4.0.80 is the software I'm using. When my phone is 'plugged' in what I see on it's face is "Sync in Progress".....for hours!

Received support email, but I did not contact them. What should I do?
Hello,
Yesterday, I received the following email from Apple Support ([email protected]) with the subject: Support email from Apple
Your support Advisor, Steve, has a follow-up message for you:
Thank you for calling Apple. It is customers like you that make Apple great. I hope your experience today has been a positive one. It has truly been a pleasure talking with you. If you have any further questions or issues please let us know. On behalf of everyone at Apply I hope you have a wonderful day.
-Steve
I never contacted them, so should I be concerned? The email also contained a case number. If I need to contact them about this, what is the correct phone number?
Thank you.Hi mrclutch,
On behalf of everyone at Apply I hope you have a wonderful day.
Apple would not call themselves "Apply". I am sure that Apple knows how to spell.
Ignore this email. It is "phishing" for your personal details. Delete it and move on. I also hope you have a wonderful day!
Regards,
Ian. -
probably asked and answered a million times but laptop died and my boyfriend and i are now sharing a computer when i went to back up my contacts i ended up with all of his? Is there a way to get them off without deleting each one? Also how do i prevent this from happening again? can someone direct me to some info on multiple phones on one itunes i am lost.
Hey there 79usma79!
I have a couple of articles for you that can help you troubleshoot the issues you are seeing with iTunes on Windows XP. The first is a general troubleshooting article, which can be found right here:
iTunes for Windows XP: Troubleshooting unexpected quits, freezes, or launch issues
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1421
This article can help you find out if there are any conflicts between your copy of Windows XP and iTunes, and can tell you what to do if there are. Before going down the troubleshooting route though, you should take a look at this article, which can help you back up your entire iTunes library to an external hard drive, so if this issue is recurring, you will be able to restore from that backup and will not have to worry about losing your playlists or music again:
iTunes: Back up your iTunes library by copying to an external hard drive

Thanks for using the Apple Support Communities!

If I set my phone to receive Imessages with my phone number ONLY, will that prevent someone else from having them sent to their device?
If I'm correct, as long as someone is logged into your Apple ID, they can receive your messages. If you think someone else is using your Apple ID, change your password.

Every time I turn on my laptop about half a dozen previous documents open up and I have to close them before I can begin. Can anyone help me prevent this from happening as it's driving me nuts!
First thing to (un)check:
When you shutdown/restart, there's a dialog box which confirms your request. In that box is a little checkbox which you should uncheck.

The Apple ID and Password that was Originally used to Activate the iDevice is required.
If you cannot get this information from the seller
Removing a device from a previous owner’s account
You need to return the Device for a refund, as you will not be able to re-activate it. -
No reaction from Adobe when I contacted them months ago about pirated Dreamweaver CS4.
Hi,
I contacted Adobe in October 2011 about Dreamweaver CS4 which I had bought at Ebay.co.uk. I had entered license number without problems originally but after my computer crashed and I had to re do the license number on a new computer it wouldn't take. I phoned the Adobe people and was told the license number was pirated and that I should report it. I did that in October 2011 and have had no reaction, it is now Feb 2012!
I am really upset about this, any advice?Hi there--if you had reported the issue to our anti-piracy group, then you can follow up by contacting them at [email protected] If you've not already done so, I also recommend that you file a complaint and pursue reimbursement through eBay. Unfortunately, Adobe can't provide much assistance for purchases made through unauthorized resellers, especially online auction sites like eBay.

I have a email address I no longer use and want, so have deleted it from my address book on my iMac and iPad. It kept reappearing when I started to type a similar email address, so I was advised to delete it by going to Mail on the iMac... Mail > Window > Previous Recipients... and Delete from there... which worked, and it now no longer appears in the To: box when typing a similar email address in Mail on my iMac.
However, even though I have deleted the same contact/email address on my iPad, it still appears when typing a similar email address in Mail on the iPad. How do I perform a similar action as I did on my iMac, to prevent it from reappearing?
Hope someone can help.
Thanks, Simon.
On the iMac..The only way that I currently know of to remove old and invalid email addresses on the iPad is to restore back to factory defaults, which I assume that you won't want to do. You could try leaving feedback for Apple, and maybe in a future update we'll be able to edit them : http://www.apple.com/feedback/ipad.html

I am getting messages that I can't download and read .pdf files since I have the wrong Adobe reader. I know about their security disasters of course, but I downloaded the latest version of Adobe Reader from the Adobe web site and I have other ,pdf file readers as well, and for some reason they won't work either. I have 5 computers running top end processors and RAM. By this I mean I have one, this one which I am using that has an AMD Phenom Black 3.2 Quad-core with 8 GBs of Corsair top DDR2 RAM, my other two AMD have either an Athlon II triple core with 4 GBs of DDR2 Corsair RAM, one with the Phenom X4 965 3.4 GHz Quad-core with 8 GBs of their best DDR2 RAM, and two Intels with the i7 920 Processors using the triple channel 1366 socket processors and one with 8 GBs of low latency DDR3 RAM and the other with 4 GBs of the same RAM. I am getting the message on this one, which has a fresh install of XP Pro X64 operating system, as do the other 4 as well. I have run Avast Business Pro Anti-virus on this one, which I am getting the message on with a single result which I deleted, and also both Spybot Search and Destroy, which came back clean as well as Malwarebytes Antimalware, which got a lot of tracing cookies now removed, and SuperAntiSpware which also found a few cookies also now deleted. Can you tell me what I need to do to get these files to show as .pdf files rather than as a clean blank page. One other issue is that I wish to know how to turn off my downloads so they are saved and Mozilla will give me the option of returning them instead of me losing them all together as it does now. Thanks for your assistance. If there is another Adobe reader I should download and install, could you provide me with the link to it? I appreciate your assistance here
== When I download and try to read a .pdf file and when I am asked to turn off all Firefox files and if I do, I lose them since I need to know how to save them without rebooting my computer.Brilliant! Problem solved! Thanks so much.

Money has been taken from my account tho nothing ordered. Can't contact them. What can I do?
WHen I first got this ipad2 and started using iTunes, I had £15+ taken from my account though I'd not bought anything. After trying to contact them a few times, I gave up. Now the same thing has happened with a download I don't need because I'd bought the book from Amazon. I've tried e mailing and phoning, but get no response. Has anyone had the same problem? What did you do about it? I'd appreciate any advice. Thanks
Go to https://expresslane.apple.com ; select 'iTunes' in the first column and then 'iTunes Store' in the second column, and proceed from there.

I bought my children ipad mini's...I signed them up using my apple id not realizing all of my calander, pictures, contacts and etc would show up on thier devices. I now want to switch them to their own apple id (which I have now created) but it won't let me erase my apple id on the device to change it...How can I change the apple id on the device?
Create a new IDs for them:
On the iPod go to
- Settings>Messages>Send and receive and sign out your ID and sign into their ID. Make sure that only their ID email address is listed.
- Settings>FaceTime sign out of your ID and sign into theirs. Make sure that under You can be reached at only their ID email address is listed
- Settings>iCloud and sign out and sign in with theirs
- Settings>iTunes and App Store and sign out your ID and sign into theirs.
- Apps are locked to the account that purchased them.
- To update apps you have to sign into the account that purchased the apps. If you have apps that need updating purchased from more than one account you have to update them one at a time until the remaining apps were purchased from one account.
